Finally good suspension
I installed some Megan Racing 32-way adjustable coilovers with pillow ball mount yesterday. I set them at 8 and drove home on them. Today I am driving with them on 12.

How you like them so far? I loved mine and everyone else I have talked to like their's too. Even a few of my Evo friends are in love with the megan coil-overs.

I just got back from lunch and I did not want to come back, I just wanted to keep driving. I did not realize how much it would also improve my steering response. I like the setting of 12 for the street.

what are your plans for sway bars? anything?
Also I would recomment getting your car corner-weighted prior to the alignment.

Damn, those sure are sexy.
I bought my Flexes before these came out, but if I had to do it again, I'd pick these up.
Only $900.... not bad

I noticed that you had RMDSM, I checked some past threads and they were bought out by MACH V and no longer available. Do you have any suggestions on what else would be good, and also work with 3" exhaust?

False, god where is this misinformation coming from. Get them straight from MachV or from Map Performance, both places can get them.
